You might have come across a lot of series or shows that have 2 or 3 seasons or more, maybe 5 to 8 seasons, but the show we are going to be discussing was so popular among the fans that it already has 16 seasons released under its name. What Would You Do is an American situational television series where people are kept under the camera, making the show totally hilarious and enjoyable. It was created by Chris Whipple and is presented by John Quiñones. The show already has 147 episodes covered in 16 seasons.
The show’s earlier episodes were really popular and enjoyable, but things kept repeating after a certain time and a lot of viewers kept losing interest, despite the fact that the show had enough fans to keep it going for a lot more seasons. The first few seasons, from 2005 to 2007, became a quick hit among fans. It was known as Primetime: What Would You Do for the first five seasons, and later its name was changed to what we know it as today.
Thereafter, the show also started featuring some guest appearances. At the show’s 10th anniversary, which happened at the end of the 13th season, it featured a few old clips featuring the old actors and characters.
What Would You Do Season 17 Release Date

As of now, the show has not been cancelled or renewed for the new season. It might be on a break in order to improve the quality of each episode, which was seen dropping in the late seasons. We can hope for it to return soon.
The show was first released with only 4 episodes on February 26, 2008, and ran till March 25, 2008. The show gained immense popularity in such a short time that it was quickly renewed for a second season, which came out on January 6, 2009, with 9 episodes. The third season then followed it the next year on May 7, 2010, again with only four episodes. The fourth season was after we saw an increase in the number of episodes.
The show had already amassed quite a following and there were a few seasons which were released in the same year. The most recent season, season 16, with 9+1 episodes, was released on July 7, 2020, and concluded on September 8, 2020.
